to try out some of AirMap's many advanced features. That brings us to
Section Four,
Land Mode Operation. After we introduce the Land Mode
menus and submenus, the rest of the section contains AirMap's more
advanced command functions
.
Your AirMap is ready to use right out of the box, but you can fine tune
and customize its operation with dozens of options. We describe how to
use them in Section 5,
System Setup and GPS Setup Options. This sec-
tion covers both Aviation Mode and Land Mode options.
Finally, in Section 6, we go into more detail on one of AirMap's most
remarkable capabilities — Searching. We'll introduce a couple of search
examples in both the Aviation and Land mode sections, but there are so
many map and aeronautical items you can search for, we had to give
this function its own section in the manual! For example, we mentioned
telephone numbers earlier. Your AirMap can function as a virtual Yel-
low Pages, and we’ll show you how in Section 6.
Now, if you're into the fine details, glance over the next segment on specifi-
cations to see just how much GPS power this little unit holds. It's impor-
tant to
us (and our power users), but, if you don't care how many waypoints
AirMap can store or just how many pixels we've crammed onto the screen,
skip ahead to important information on how AirMap works, on page 5.
